HONG Drs

The San Francisco Post says: When
q man. and a Chinaman at that, who
deliberately murders q woman, wounds
a man and attempts to kill a girl can
rot be condemned to death by a Cali
fornia jury, it may well be thought that
legal hanging is played out. So the
people of Colusa think, and they have
determined to give juries q lesson. The
only thing to be regretted about the
execution of Hong Di is its informality.
This IS not an instance OF q crazy mob
lynching a possibly innocent victim on
bare suspicion. The case has been dis.
cussed and probed for months. Hong
had the benefit Of a fair trial. The
evidence against him was conclusive;
he made no attempt to deny the kill.
ing, and the only question at issue was
one Of motives. As to that, no evi.
dence was introduced to support his
statements, and even if there had been,
his crime, on his own showing, would
have remained a willful murder. The
jury admitted that he was guilty of
murder in the first degree, and fve-
sixths of the jurors were in favor of
hanging. But for the misplaced tender
mesa of the other two men, Hong Di
would have been legally executed amid
universal approval. and the State would
have been spared the stain of q lawless
administration of justice.
Lynchings are always depIorable.
even when justified. but if we must have
them, it is better to have them after .
trial than before. There is no danger
then of hanging the wrong man. In
this case. however, two men almost as
guilty AZ Hong Di escaped. The jurors
who disregarded the evidence and voted
to give the assassin the benefit of the
latent possibilities of the Sacramento
pardon mill were accomplices in his
crime. They are responsible for making
justice o lawbreaker.
We trust that the lesson of this affair
will not be lost here. A San Francisco
mob has not been very formidable of
late years. but the best way to keep it
from being formidable is to prevent it
from recruiting the best elements of the
community. An honest and fearless adj
ministration of justice is the one thing
needed to keep good citizens on the side
Of order.

THE AILRO WEST.

1t has been limited to us, says the Salt
Lake Tribune, that arrangements are
quietly being made to do the preliminary
work necessary before organizing a COM
pany to build a railroad from this city to
tap some of the important mining camps
in Eastern Nevada and Western Utah,
namely: To have preliminary surveys
made and mapped; to have the districts
carefully examined, and reports and
maps made of them. We believe that
this work could be done for . sum not
TO exceed $500. We believe that,
with the data prepared, the money to
bald 400 miles of good road could be
easily secured in the East. We believe
that the surveys would show that the
400 miles of road could be built and
equipped with 40-lb steel and plenty o;
rolling stock. for -. 500,O 600. and that
when completed it could depend upon
1000 tons of ore daily for freight, be-
sides the mail, the express, the coal, salt
and a vast amount of merchandise and
agricultural products There are over
forty mining camps to be tapped. One
thousand tons per day would be but
City tons from each Of twenty camps.
This. at 81 per ton, would give the road
5000 per day, or 500. 600 for 500
working days in $ year. Allowing half
the sum for expenses. the other hall
would pay II per cent per annum on the
cost of the road. Considering every
thing that would demand transportation,
and the road ought to pay % per cent
per year, or, with rates ike those gen.
orally charged, so per cent per year.
There 10 sno better promise held out to
men anywhere for investment. And
such a road started from here and with
the idea Of keeping this city its main
depot, would double the population and
the value of property in this city in
twelve months. It would de-. for it more
than the Union Pacific. the Central Pa
ciic, the Utah L Northern and the Utah
Central are now doing. 1t would be
more to its prosperity than to have three
new Eastern roads enter the Territory,
for those roads, even if they covered the
same lines and commanded the same
camps, would ship ores through this city
and on to Denver, Kansas City, Omaha
or Chicago. Ii this city had the nerve
to subscribe the first 81, 900, 600 to the
road, it would get all its money back in
five years; it would, before that time,
have its assessable property Implicated,
and it would thereafter draw a revenue
amounting to enough to pay all its rum
ming expenses without taxing the people

WASHINGTON, July 12.-lt seems
that among the other victims gath
cred in by the Fidelity Bank of Gin
~cinnati, was the United States Gov
eminent for the sum OF $500. Some
months ago a contract was made with
solomon X. Kincon OF Cincinnati TO
furnish a given quantity OF coal for the
use Of the Customs House IN that
city for the sum of $500. The money
was deposited in the Fidelity Bank to
the credit OF the custodian OF the
Customs House, with instructions to
transfer it TO NJ. kineon upon the full
fllment OF this contract. The custo-
dian received a certified check for the
amount, and placed it in his office
safe. II was rendered to the con-
tractor in payment for his coal after
the banks suspension, and he natu-
rally refused TO receive it. The Gov
eminent will undoubtedly have to
lose the money unless it can be recoy-

not much promise. This transaction

REDWOOD CRY, July 13.-At an
early hour yesterday morning the res
idents OF Mayfield were awakened by
a loud report that shook the ground
and ratified windows. The boiler of
the threshing engine belonging to Al
exander Gordon of this place had
blown up on his farm, a short dis
lance from town, instantly killing Mr..
Carr, the engineer, and fatally injur-
ing Louis Salicita, the fireman. Carr
was standing at his post, and had just
started the engine for a days work
when the explosion took place. He
was blown to pieces, and all portions
of his remains have not vet been
found. Salicita was considerably fur
Their away from the engine, but he is
.frightfully mangled, and death is
thought to be but a matter of a few
hours.
Another account from San Jose says
that Louis Salicita, the fireman, was
killed, and Ed Carr, the engineer, and
a nephew of Jesse d. Carr, was ia
tally injured.

edly spreads pessimistic views Of life.
How is it possible that men and
women of excellent character, much
intellectual power and keen sympa-
thy, can escape a pessimistic express
sion when they see the unscrupu-
lous and low-minded secure the ma
terial advantage here, and prove the
truth of the saying: "Man's inhu-
mainly to man makes countless
thousands mourn"
The extensive pessimism which
now prevails proves the existence of
a widespread dissatisfaction. Many
who feel a depressing influence have
never attempted to find out its cause,
and many who have made attempts
to discover the cause of their pes
simistic feeling have not had the
courage to admit to themselves that
it is due to the false, or rather non
organization OF modern Society, al
though they have a perception that
the present disorganized state of So
ciety is answerablo for many evils.
This increasing pessimism may be
regarded as a hopeful sign by social
and industrial reformers. But, of
course, it is necessary that the people
should not be allowed to sink into a
condition of lethargy with no energy
to seek and obtain such a change as
will bring them justice. The new
gospel, which is to revive and quick
en- the spirit of men, Is that of So
calism, whose advocates will, how
ever, no doubt meet with persecution,
as all movements for the good of
manki-d have encountered the
fiercest opposition. samuel Sidney,

CAPTAIN BLACKS SACRIFICE.

No man has lost more by his con-
nection with the anarchist trials
than Captain Black, the able and
gifted lawyer. His devotion to the
cause of the accused men has been
very costly to him. When he was
first engaged in their defence his law
business was second to that of no
general lawyer in Chicago. There
is almost nothing left of it now. He
was socially one of the most popular
men in the city. He is ostraciscd
now. His house used TO be resort
of society people. It's stunned now.
For eighteen months he devoted
every hour he was awake to the at
tempt to save his clients. He re-
ceived practically nothing for his
services, and his travelling and other
expenses must have been very heavy.
Taking into consideration the money
he would have made if he had de-
voted himself to his business during
these months, he comes out of the
affair $780, poorer than he went
into it He is said to feel very deep
ly the detection of his lends and
the unjust accusations that have been
made against him, for he has been
represented as a fiery Anarchist and
an advocate of red revolution, when
he has not the slightest sympathy
with any doctrine Of Anarchy. Ills
devotion to the cause of his
clients grew entirely out Of big and
tender heart and its pity for the
miserable plight of the accused men
and their families. Even the old
soldiers, who used to be very proud

ANOTHER POLICE CONSPIRACY.

Throughout the trial of the Chi
cage Anarchists the police authori-
ties have not scruplcd to use any in
fanny which would tend to secure the
hanging of the condemned men.
The latest manmvre on their part is
the report that, search i'll the cells
of the Anarchists having been made,
four loaded bombs were discovered
concealed under some newspapers in
the cell occupied by Lingg. Al
though this in itself is utterly ridicu-
lous it just shows to what lengths
these precious hirelings of a rascally
exploiting gang will go. The idea
of bombs being concealed in a cell
Where was the vigilance of the po-
lice and warders to allow such things
to enter? No. if the bombs were
there at all they were placed there
by the authorities themselves in Or
der to excite public opinion against
the Anarchists 50 that they might
be hurried out of existence on a
wave of popular Indignation. "

may have prided himself hitherto
on belonging to "naton of the
free" must blush with shame to find
that under the "Great Republic"
